Frequently asked questions
How do I obtain my GrowthZone API key?
You must request an API key from GrowthZone WebSupport. They will verify your account's API access level and provide the credentials needed to connect your agent.
Can I search for specific members by their email or name?
Yes! Use the search_contacts tool. You can provide a name or email address as a query, and the agent will return all matching profiles from your database.
How can I see who is registered for an upcoming event?
Simply ask the agent to list participants for a specific Event ID. It will fetch the registration list and provide names and details of all attendees.
Is the integration secure for managing my association's data?
Absolutely. The connection uses industry-standard API keys and focuses on querying operations. Your credentials are encrypted and stored securely within the Vinkius Cloud infrastructure.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
